At the risk of being screamed at - have you PM Mrs Flibble? She's a very clever lady with fabrics and I'm sure she could do wonders with them. Sorry Mrs F - but I couldn't think of a more worthy place for them.

Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Member of the Ish Weight Loss Club since 10/1/11 Started at 12st 8 and have lost 8lb so far!

However, we are always building up extra off cuts and are more than happy to pass it on rather than sending it to landfill.

The only thing is we are talking bin bags full and they would be very expensive to post but if there is someone on or near our delivery route we are more than happy to deliver or meet them somewhere. Our normal route is Lincolnshire, Cambridge, Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk.

Hi if you can't find a worthy home for them I know lots if not all charity shops take rags ......they get paid by the weight for them......I know IO bag up all our bits and bobs ie odd socks and clothes that are too bad for any other purpose

Funnily enough for years now we have been offering our off cuts of fabric for free yet the uptake has been far and few between. Although they are only bits and pieces, lots of our fabrics retail at £100 meter plus!!

We have willingly given it to local schools yet the response has been more or less oh no what are we going to do with that! Charity shops don't seem that interested. The only enthusiastic response we have really got is when we lived in Essex when the local operatic group wanted it.

Yet if we do a car boot sale folks will willingly pay for it. It never fails to surprise me that if you offer something for free - pretty much no response - yet sell it and people will buy

I was wondering do you still have off cuts, I live in cambridge and my boyfriend lives in colchester, I am a student, trying to create an up-cycled collection and am looking for off cuts of fabrics to produce my collection is there any chance i could have some i could drive to you or meet you some where??
